电子地图符号体系与符号库标准的研究

The symbology standards for the electronic cartography

在地理信息技术发展的推动下,电子地图的制作和应用日益普及,电子地图符号的规范化势在必行。在传统纸张地图图式规范的基础上,参照国际类似的标准文本,为使电子地图符号适应技术环境和视觉环境的变化,我们对此进行了适当改进,原则继承纸张地图符号的内容分类体系和形状分类体系,延续阅读地图的信息传输和读者认同的习惯。在深入审视符号对视觉产生的复杂作用的基础上,对基本符号实体内容适当简化,对色彩、图元组合关系适当调整,在通用地理信息系统软件平台上制作了基本地理底图的符号库标准草案。

Over the past few years, digital process to map design and making become popular, there is the urgent need to promote the guideline or standard for electronic maps compilation, especially in symbol design. For the challenging work, the useful ideas in the international reference and local document were introduced, and past map legend for paper media topographic map would be improved for the specific visual environment. The list of symbol divided into 2 catalogs of content list and shape list. The proposed standard on the symbol list is in the evaluation stage and would be improved with worthwhile comments from cartographic colleagues.
